Korean Midterms / DotS Ep 5

Image
How I feel after Korean test. HAHA kidding there were parts that I had no idea how to answer. It was still way better than Tax yesterday. Best thing is that last night I was trying to revise this word that I knew I would forget. It came out today and guess what? I forgot. 😂  But never mind not all is lost. ✌🏻️ Plus the cute guy in our class said bye to me  @ngjieling  😂 HAHAHA. I went to collect my transcript at the SAC and the lady told me to sign on the electronic thing. That's when I stared at it and stuck out my finger and stared at my finger. Then the lady said "no no you have to sign with the pen thing.", and she proceeded to take it out of the electronic display.  I was like 😳😳😳 I think she saw me staring at my finger and guessed what I was thinking. HAHAHA #mostembarrassingmomentever My friend once told me I should write a book of the embarrassing things I did in uni. Including standing on the ground floor at 10PM shouting HIIII to my friend...

Day 69

Image
What I'm currently doing: sitting in class attempting to take selfies without the next table noticing me. Which sort of explains why my photos have such bad lighting and I look stone-faced. The light is right above my head. 😥 Decided to use my #Bloom palette today! Even though I woke up late and was running late. I actually used Sweetheart, Rebel and Leader but I think from my photo it just looks like Rebel all over. 😅 Wearing Brink again today by the way! It's really MLBB 😍 Another close up. I really really LOVE the colours I used today they're super pigmented and soft. Maybe I just haven't really used any good palettes before. 😂 Anyway my current state of mind is: 🙄 We have a tax midterm today and I couldn't sleep, so I ended up sleeping maybe only around 1AM. I had to wake up at 630AM for my morning class which I am actually SU-Ing. So there's not much point in me going, except my own principles. 😩 Woke up this morning to messages from my ...

Day 68

Image
My new baby arrived today! So excited to play with it. I don't know when I can, though. 🤔 Hello, my preciousssss. I love the packaging. So much. I'm actually super excited to play with this but I think I need some eye primer first. Any recommendations for something good that won't blow another hole in my pocket?  Not sure if I should bother using it tomorrow to school, because I have midterms anyway so maybe that extra 10 minutes of sleep will help my brain power? 😂 The shades that I'll most likely be using. No idea what I'm going to do with the darkest shades! Maybe I'll use Leader. But the other two colours above it... 🤔 Woes of Asian eyes really. Almost tempted to just whip out my eyeshadow brushes now and play with it hahaha. But no. I've got to go back to capital allowances. I predict my Sleek palette going to an absolute waste after I start using this... And that is also why I don't like to buy numerous versions of on...

Fayth Mink Dress #OOTD

Image
What a long day. Currently lying on the floor in my room because I don't want to dirty my bed haha. Experienced really terrible service from Sephora SG? They keep providing me with a number to call for urgent issues or rescheduling of delivery and that number completely does not work. It just says that they're unavailable and to email instead. Then what is the point of the number..? 🤔 and then rescheduling means they pick any other day to deliver the item. Their choice of day. But to me that's like: if there's nobody at home today at noon, which is presumably working hours for most adults, how likely is it that if you pick any other day (and tell me you'll deliver at the SAME timing), somebody will magically be at home to accept the package? 😓 Had a terrible experience just to save 10% off the price. Not worth it! It's just adding onto my internship/midterms/projects/life stress. New (sort of) dress from #fayth! The oddest thing is I saw someone ...

Tartelette in Bloom swatches / Nyx SMLC Cannes

Image
Shameless selfie as I edit photos of my Tarte Bloom swatches. My #FOTD to today's interview! I think I did my eyebrows too dark and thick for an interview but hopefully the interviewer didn't care 😂 After the interview I went to Sephora to check out the new Bloom palette... And I fell in love. Would you look at that gorgeous packaging please? I have 10% off at Sephora now and I really WANT to buy it. Like just make an impulsive purchase. I feel like I deserve it after making it through two interviews. Hahaha. #tarte #bloom Here's how it looks like on the inside. It retails for $69. By the way this is Too Faced's Chocolate BonBon for comparison - it's $76 and really does smell like chocolate. I was turned off by the smell though, having chocolate smelling makeup just seems a little strange to me. It's pricier BUT comes with more colours! I can't say the colours appeal to me though - I know for sure I won't be using much of that shim...

I baked a Vanilla Loaf 🍰

Image
I baked a cake! 🎈🍰 Get ready for a spam of cake photos hehehe. Best way to use up leftover milk: bake something. I'm slightly lactose intolerant, so drinking large amounts of milk gives me diarrhoea (and pimples). BUT the problem is I occasionally crave cold milk and cereal. So occasionally I buy a box of Cookie Crisp cereal and 1L of milk and have it for breakfast on weekends. There's always like maybe 250-300mL of milk left and no cereal left to eat it with. Plus I just bought a new loaf tin recently and it was just sitting in a cupboard unused. Therefore - bake a loaf cake! I've never done anything besides brownies, cookies before. Did apple pie twice and cinnamon rolls once but I did so badly with the dough I got scarred 😂 This is a super simple and basic vanilla loaf cake and I was so scared it would turn out badly. I put chocolate and peanut butter chips in it BUT they all sank to the bottom. 😂 so the bottom is extremely sweet. Random photo of when...

Interview / Help me choose spectacles!

Image
I feel like this sticker looks more like a heartbroken girl waiting for her crush to call. But no, that's also me waiting for companies to call me back after submitting my applications and resumes. It's been a crazy 2 weeks of waiting and waiting and refreshing my email inbox every half an hour only to be disappointed. 😪 But TODAY. I'm going for an interview! I didn't prep that much, just answered a few questions in my head, read a bit about the company's working culture etc. I think the school's career lessons have taught me quite a bit? I think my class was especially stressful because my teacher from Citibank HR really drilled us every week on interviews. Each person had to have a mock interview + personal pitch every week in front of two groups of fellow classmates. So you're stressed because you've like 10 pairs of eyes staring at you. Going for classes was such a pain because of that. Every week for 3 weeks. 😭 In any case I feel a lit...
